Top tier game... I'm beginning to see a trend here wish Catfish .... a lot of their games are refreshingly semi-innovative, highly polished, and most importantly, seem to have this huge replay magnet hooked up to their games! Lol
★★★★★
Fun Very fun, but control via tilting is difficult on my Xoom.
★★★★★
1,000 Only 1,000 downloads? I've downloaded tons of games and this has the best replay value by far. Trippy visuals. Getting better at this game requires you to develop techniques by playing more.
★★☆☆☆
won't installation on asus tf300 will not install on my asus transformer tf300. Please fix
★★☆☆☆
Motion controls should _never_ be used exclusively in a game like this; just adds an unnecessary level of preciseness in a fast-paced arcade game.
